    Yao's method collects in u first those x i that appear to the highest power ⁠ ⁠; in the next round those with power ⁠ ⁠ are collected in u as well etc. The variable y is multiplied ⁠ h − 1 {\displaystyle h-1} ⁠ times with the initial u , ⁠ h − 2 {\displaystyle h-2} ⁠ times with the next highest powers, and so on.

  3. The Power of 10: Rules for Developing Safety-Critical Code

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Power_of_10:_Rules_for...

    Avoid complex flow constructs, such as goto and recursion. All loops must have fixed bounds. This prevents runaway code. Avoid heap memory allocation. Restrict functions to a single printed page. Use a minimum of two runtime assertions per function. Restrict the scope of data to the smallest possible.

  4. Corecursion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corecursion

    In computer science, corecursion is a type of operation that is dual to recursion.Whereas recursion works analytically, starting on data further from a base case and breaking it down into smaller data and repeating until one reaches a base case, corecursion works synthetically, starting from a base case and building it up, iteratively producing data further removed from a base case.

  5. Power of two - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_two

    Two to the power of n, written as 2 n, is the number of values in which the bits in a binary word of length n can be set, where each bit is either of two values. A word, interpreted as representing an integer in a range starting at zero, referred to as an "unsigned integer", can represent values from 0 (000...000 2) to 2 n − 1 (111...111 2) inclusively.

  6. Recamán's sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recamán's_sequence

    In mathematics and computer science, Recamán's sequence [1] [2] is a well known sequence defined by a recurrence relation. Because its elements are related to the previous elements in a straightforward way, they are often defined using recursion.

  7. Bit manipulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_manipulation

    To determine if a number is a power of two, conceptually we may repeatedly do integer divide by two until the number won't divide by 2 evenly; if the only factor left is 1, the original number was a power of 2. Using bit and logical operators, there is a simple expression which will return true (1) or false (0):

  8. Recursion (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion_(computer_science)

    Recursive drawing of a Sierpiński Triangle through turtle graphics. In computer science, recursion is a method of solving a computational problem where the solution depends on solutions to smaller instances of the same problem. [1] [2] Recursion solves such recursive problems by using functions that call themselves from within their own code ...

  9. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    In mathematics, exponentiation, denoted b n, is an operation involving two numbers: the base, b, and the exponent or power, n. [1] When n is a positive integer, exponentiation corresponds to repeated multiplication of the base: that is, b n is the product of multiplying n bases: [1] = ⏟.
